Hobby Lobby currently has ten locations in New Jersey (including Lawrenceville and Deptford). The company's website says that the first Hobby Lobby opened in Oklahoma City in 1970. Almost 50 years later, there are over 800 locations, making it "the largest privately owned arts-and-crafts retailer in the world with approximately 32,000 employees and operating in forty-seven states."

While Hobby Lobby has many loyal fans, it also has many detractors. You can read more about that on Wikipedia.
